Hi, this is upstream.

If you're using the Ubuntu or Debian packages, it's natural that plain `tilp` 
does not work, and `sudo tilp` works. The packages don't perform the addition 
of udev rules noted in the CONFIG (duly mentioned by the 
http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_tilp/download/install_tilp.sh script I posted above).
The Ubuntu and Debian packages are outdated anyway. There have been a 
significant number of fixes and several new features brewing up in SVN since 
TILP II 1.13, 1 year and 8 months ago. Some of them integrated to the TILP II 
1.14 release 10 months ago (I notified the package maintainer), more of them 
since then.

For proper selection of the link cable, it should be either set for
automatic detection, or manually configured in the GUI. I'll admit that
for users of outdated versions, manual configuration is not intuitive
(even though documented, AFAIK): one has to right-click on the line at
the top of the tree in the left pane. This long-running gripe against
the UI has been fixed in SVN in April-May 2010, shortly after the TILP
II 1.14 release: there's now a menu that contains, between other things,
the "Change device" option.


Lionel.
